How literally should we take the Qur'an ?

You could've said that if there were only one risky claim such as water being present in all organisms. There are dozens of other similar claims.

The probability of getting one risky claim right: 1/2=0.5

two risky claims : 1/4=0.25

four risky claims : 1/16=0.0625.

Let's be generous and say there are only 30 risky statements in the Qur'an (out of a total of 6236 verses): the probability of getting all of them right is 1/2^30 = 9.3132257e-10 = 9.3132257 x 10-10 = 0.00000000093132257.

You're free to believe that the prophet is that lucky, ofc.
